Re: If.. (Name Change)
My mn comes from my father's side of the family, but there's nothing from the other side. Many are not suitable - who'd choose to be Christiana, Muriel or Nellie? - but others are. I think that what I'd like, now they are both deceased, would be my father's name, feminised, and my mother's only name.
Which would make me Cecily Beatrice. I'd retain my mn, which is generic as well as being a family name, so: Cecily Beatrice Anne. I find it pleasing. The only family name I regret having to leave out is Dinah, which I find delightful!
